Mark Hughes - NEW POLL

Ta Jon.

 

IIRC he brought few quite a few of the Man City youngsters-Richards, Wright-Phillips, Ireland, Onuha as well as signing bigger names.
Hopefully he can have a positive influence on our younger players, Sudeneki and is it Wood? Sound our brightest prospects that we’ve yet to see

 

ahahahahaha aye

 

What would put the icing on the cake and help significantly, would be Rupp and Sparks going on record via a press conference stating what the direction is, both short and long term, what backing is available to Hughes and who is responsible in the management team for putting together/ actioning. Or am I asking for too much?

 

What will be do with the remaining 9 minutes 30 seconds he has then ?

 

Maybe, maybe not, only time will tell.

 

His experience at a higher level should point us in the direction, with backing, on how this Club should be run and the structure it needs to aim for. This alone should be reason enough.Didn't see it coming but certainly uplifting news.Ryan's cred must have gone up a notch as well!!

 

Sparky is in a different universe never mind league to Taylor. All he ever really did was manage the England U21's

 

Just imagining the collective groan in the households of Mansfield.

They were thinking they'd pop along with 2,500 fans and walk away with 3 nice and easy points.

They may still win but I reckon we'll see some proper fight (not the Paudie sending off kind) from our players on Saturday now.

 

Colin Todd was a far bigger name than Peter Taylor, as were Roy McFarland, Trevor Cherry, Frank Stapleton and possibly Lenny Lawrence.

 

And did they bring some big name players to the club?

Also, wasn't Taylor England manager briefly?

 

Caretaker for one match I believe and only because it was too close to match day to make a permanent appointment. As a manager, Leicester City was his biggest job. Last seen at Welling United.

 

Lennie Lawrence was a "Mega disappointment"

 

Looking at Lennie's wiki page, why was he a big deal?

Slightly before my time, but he managed Charlton and Middlesbrough and was a non league player?

What am I missing?

 

Nationality “Australia”. No sure that’s site is 100% accurate

 

He got both promoted to the Old Division One/PL.

 

Has Hughes made a statement yet,about what he sees as the way forward for City.

 

Press Conference at 3pm I think.

 

Maybe he is going to send them to top specialists to see if he can get them going

 

Do we get a rebate?
